Kate Bush

A long-time favorite of mine, here's some of my favorite songs

The Red Shoes

o Rubberband Girl (2.2mb)
o The Song of Solomon (2.1mb)

The Sensual World

o The Fog (2.4mb)
o This Woman's Work (1.7mb)

Hounds of Love

o Cloud Busting (2.5mb)
o Waking the Witch (2.0mb)

The Dreaming

o There Goes a Tenner (1.6mb)
o Houdini (1.8mb)
If you liked Houdini, you might want to hear an interview (10.0mb) that Kate gave in 1983 in which she talks about how she came up with the idea for the song. Fascinating for the true Kate fan!

Lionheart

o Kafka From Baghdad (1.9mb)
o Coffee Homeground (1.7mb)

The Kick Inside

o Wuthering Heights (2.1mb)
o Oh to be in Love (1.6mb)
The USENET news group rec.music.gaffa is the place to chat about Kate on the net, and there's even a FAQ for it right here!

Other Kate Bush Web sites

The Kate Bush Web that has all the news, gossip and fan info is Experiment IV

Cloudbusting - Kate Bush in her own words has Kate-quotes, background info and other neat stuff

Lionheart, a handy place for information on all things Kate.

The Ultimate Band List: Kate Bush has links to lots of other Kate-info, like lyrics, FAQ's and all kinds of goodies I'm too lazy to put here ;-)

Elvis Costello

Another British artist I'm fond of is Elvis Costello, and he's got a new album out called Brutal Youth. Here's a few tracks from it.

o 20% Amnesia (1.6mb)
o 13 Steps Lead Down (1.6mb)

For more Elvis stuff, check out the Elvis Costello home page.

The Yellowjackets

Here's a new-wave jazz group I've followed for several years. They're latest album is Like a River, and here's some cuts from it:

o River Waltz (2.8mb)
o 1998 (3.3mb)

Enigma

Funky yet relaxing, Enigma's first album MCMXAD is not like much else out there except their second album.

o Principles of Lust (5.6mb)
o Knocking on Forbidden Doors (2.1mb)

The Cranberries

A fairly new group, I can't bring myself to call them alternative because even my sister likes them. I think you will too, so here's some songs from their album Everybody Else is Doing So Why Can't We?

o Dreams (2.1mb)
o Wanted (1.0mb)

Belly

You've heard her in Throwing Muses and This Mortal Coil, now she's got her own group! Here's her new album Star

o Someone to Die For (1.0mb)
o Gepetto (1.6mb)

Other Music in Cyberspace

Music around the world claims it has links to some of the most extensive collections of musical info on the net...

No music fan will want to miss the Internet Underground Music Archive, which is cool enough to have made it to the mass media, including a spot on CNN. You must check this one out if you want to hear up & coming artists!

Of course Adam Curry is now a "Cyberspace Celebrity", and he has is own site, The Vibe
